2. Not Impressed

When I first looking at upgrading my phone, my criteria was pretty standard. A phone that works and that I won't have any problems with.

It was within the first month after I had purchased this phone that I realised I had made a grave error. The first thing that I noticed was that dust was getting in under the screen. Ok, no big deal I thought, but more started to accumulate. Now in one corner of the phone there is a rather large area of dust, and as the cover does not come off, it is impossible to remove it.

The next thing I found was that it switched off occasionally for no reason. I took it back to the place of purchase and they reloaded the software which they believed was at fault. Not a good start.

Also when scrolling through the music player screen the phone began to lag to an unusable speed. This on;y happens when a memory card is in the phone.

After this I also noticed that the sliding mechanism actually wears away the plastic revealing the underlying metal. This may not be an altogether bad thing as the plastic is very tacky.

The speaker in the phone is loud enough although as it is supposed to be a 'high quality' speaker it is nothing special.

The keys on the slider has a nice feel to them, however the positioning of them being so close to the main body of the phone, hinders the pressing of the top row.

Pros

Ok speaker.
Runs on Nokia Symbian

Cons

Tacky design
riddled with flaws
